Hey, guys. Welcome to the next Jurassic Universe Chapter. I hope that you guys will enjoy the new chapter...anyway, I don't own anything except for my OCs, as the OC Arthur Galaxy and Tiger belong entirely to my friend 9655.

NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!

"This way everyone and, remember, we must all remain quiet," Garnet warned as we see the Crystal Gems treading through a crystal path placed inside of an Underground Ice Cavern in a Snow Mountain somewhere in Antarctica as Steven can be seen wearing a long-sleeved light pink puffy snow jacket that constantly made various swishing noises with each step he took, which irritated Pearl and the boys as they turned to him.

"Ugh, Steven, this is supposed to be a stealth mission, and you're making too much noise." Pearl scolded with a glare as Saurus nodded while placing his hands in his pockets.

"Seriously, Little Buddy, take off that jacket. We are not going to be here for that long anyway." Saurus says with a shrug as Steven turned to pout at the Human/Dinosaur Hybrid.

"But I don't wanna catch a cold," Steven says with a worried tone while wrapping his arms around himself as Arthur raised an eyebrow at him oddly.

"Then why are you still wearing sandals?" Arthur says while pointing down at Steven's sandals as Saurus nodded.

"Yeah, man, just take off your jacket already," Saurus says as Steven shakes his head stubbornly.

"I'm not a Dinosaur Hybrid like you and Blue, Saurus. I can't survive in the cold for so long." Steven says with a glare as Saurus rolled his eyes with Blue riding around on his back in her baby carrier as she can be seen trying to eat a large block of ice. "Look, guys, I can be quiet. See? Stealth." Steven says while putting on a serious glare as he sticks his arms out straight to avoid making the noise.

"I highly doubt that will work," Arthur stated dryly as Garnet turned to them.

"We're getting close," Garnet says while adjusting her visor as Pearl nodded.

"C'mon then," Pearl says as the Crystal Gems and started walking forward as Saurus and Amethyst slowly turned to glance at each other before glancing over at Steven as a mischievous idea popped into their heads and they started imitating the noise that Steven's jacket makes.

"Guys!" Steven whispered-yelled while turning to glare at them as Saurus and Amethyst keeps making the noise with even Blue joining in-between her trying to eat the block of ice.

"Guys, knock it off." An irritated Arthur says as Saurus and Amethyst ignored him and continued making the whooshing noises as an annoyed Pearl turned to the Human/Gem Child Hybrid.

"Steven." Pearl chastises while glaring at him as a nervous Steven flinched.

"It wasn't me," Steven says panickedly while turning to glare at Saurus and Amethyst, who shared a chuckle as they tried to smile innocently. "Saurus, Amethyst, Blue, you guys are making me look baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!" Steven says before flailing around in surprise as the ledge that he was standing on starts to crumble and a worried Saurus reached over to grab him and was able to pull him to safety. "Whoa, that was close, thanks, Saurus."

"You're welcome, kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid!" Saurus says before screaming in surprise as the ground that they were standing on crumbled and broke apart, sending the Quadrio falling down through the air with the Boys screaming in fear while Blue cheered excitedly as Steven reflexively summoned his Bubble Shield and the Group began plummeting into the cavern of darkness as they crashed against various small cliffs, but the Trio were thankfully remained unharmed by the fall as they were about to continue falling, only for Garnet to appear out of nowhere and grabbed Bubble Shield as she slowly levitated them down into the ground.

"Huh?! How did you-Oh, wait, you can fly. Right. I kind of forgot that you can do that." Saurus says with a slow blink just as Steven popped his bubble as the Boys landed down in Garnet's arms while Blue landed down on her afro.

"So did the Crewniverse."

"What?"

"Hmmm." Garnet hummed while purposely ignoring what a confused Saurus says as a Corrupted Gem Creature emerges from a hole in the ceiling and fell down to land on the ground as she resembled to be a gigantic brittle star with a massive disk of radial symmetry and four short dark blue tentacle arms that lack tube feet as the upper portion of her disk appears as a giant mound of turquoise-colored crystal-like 'material' with multiple geometric facets, the lower half of the disk is colored a darker shade of turquoise, the arms are joined near the middle of the disk and taper to a point outwards; they are also turquoise in color, albeit in an even darker shade than the disc's underside, the ventral side of the disk contains a drill-like apparatus that can unfurl to reveal five turquoise colored arms, which appear to have fingers that surround a mouth as the dorsal side of the disk houses multiple Drill Parasites that furl themselves to form spike-like protuberance that Blue Chalcedony can launch. Her name is Blue Chalcedony.

"Whoa!" Saurus, Steven, Arthur, and Blue yelped in surprise as the Blue Chalcedony began shooting various crystal spikes at them and Garnet's body glowed maroon as she extended her neck and arms and used her stretching abilities to have her and the Kids avoid all of the incoming crystal spikes as they buried themselves into the wall behind them.

"Steven! Saurus! Arthur! Blue!" Pearl and Amethyst screamed panickedly while jumping down to land on the ground just as Garnet shapeshifted her neck and limbs back to normal as she placed the Boys down on the ground.

"Gems, stand down, I will handle this," Garnet says while reaching up to grab Blue and had a confused Pearl grab her as she then took off at Superhuman Speed.

"Wait, we want to help." A determined Saurus says as Amethyst held out her arm.

"Yeah, no, it's best to stick around." Amethyst advises knowingly.

"But what about Garnet?" Steven asked worriedly as Pearl turned to smile down at him reassuringly while jostling Blue in her arms as she was STILL trying to eat the block of ice.

"Don't worry, Boys. Garnet got this. Just watch." Pearl says while she and Amethyst De-Summoned their weapons as they pointed ahead.

Turning over to glance at the battlefield, the Boys were stunned to see Garnet rushing over to Blue Chalcedony at high speeds, resembling a maroon blur as it screeched loudly and sends out her four dark blue tentacle arms that stretched out in size as they zoomed over to the Leader of the Crystal Gems, who raised her left arm and summoned Sapphire's Weapon, which was a periwinkle blue brass knuckle, as she proceeds to slash down at one of the dark blue tentacle arms and was able to slice it in half.

Whirling around, Garnet held out her right arm as she was able to create a huge sword made out of red fire and sliced through the second dark blue tentacle arm, burning it to a crisp as Garnet then leaped up into the air and whirled around rapidly just as the third dark blue tentacle arm zoomed below her as she stopped in mid-air and floated around as the Leader of the Crystal Gems reached down to place her left hand on the tentacle arm while activating her electricity powers as she started shocking it relentlessly.

Stopping her onslaught, Garnet then fired out a burst of icy wind energy that traveled across the third dark blue tentacle arm, freezing it in a block of ice as Garnet was quick to land down on the tentacle arm and started sliding down it at high speeds just as the fourth dark blue arm was flung at her maliciously as Garnet merely front flip over to slice it in half with her brass knuckles and twirled around elegantly as she landed in front of the Blue Chalcedony.

De-Summoning her Weapon, Garnet then generated a large ice sword from her left hand and gripped her elemental weapons tightly just as the Blue Chalcedony unfurl her drill-like apparatus to reveal her five turquoise-colored arms as Garnet's visor glinted visibly and used both her Future Vision and Superhuman Speed to block and parry all of the Blue Chalcedony's attacks as she even either burned off her arms or iced it up with her fire and ice swords.

Grinning stoically, Garnet was finally able to find her opponent's weak point and acted accordingly by dissipating her Elemental Weapons as she then held out her right hand and summoned Ruby's Weapon, which was a single bright scarlet gauntlet, as Garnet then uses her Shapeshifting Powers to stretch out her right arm and lit up her Gem Weapon in red flames as the Leader of the Crystal Gems then thrusted her stretched out arm forward and it flew over to collide against the Blue Chalcedony's mouth, burying itself deep inside of her body, which started heating up with intense heat as the Corrupted Gem Creature screeched in pain before a huge inferno bursted out of her body, causing her to poof into a giant blue cloud and left behind crystal spikes as a stoic Garnet emerges from the cloud with a Spiky Gem in a bubble after morphing her arm back to normal and De-Summoned her Weapon.

"...Okay, I'm not normally the one to gush, but...THAT WAS SO FUCKING COOL!" Saurus squealed with starry eyes as he, the Boys, Blue, and even the Crystal Gems were amazed by Garnet's combat prowess.

"He, he, yep, Garnet's the Frostfire Amazon Demigodess of the group." Amethyst bragged with a chuckle.

"Seriously, Garnet, you were so fast. I could barely keep up." An amazed Arthur says as Blue giggles.

"Pretty magic!" Blue cooed childishly while holding out her arms excitedly as Pearl continued holding her.

"Garnet, you are so cool. How'd you even do that?" An impressed Steven asked as Garnet turned to give him her attention with a discreet Arthur going over to scan Blue Chalcedony's Gem with his black gemstone stealthily when no one was looking as Garnet was about to say something, but then-

"Guys, look! The little ones didn't explode! They're drilling away!" A gasping concerned Pearl says while pointing at the ground as the Crystal Gems were surprised to see the Crystal Spikes burrowing themselves into the ground to escape.

"I got it!" A grinning Amethyst says while rushing over to dive down into one of the holes, getting herself stuck as Saurus and Arthur laughed loudly.

"Let them go. They're just parasites. If they want to be a problem, they'll have to answer to me." Garnet says, sounding like a fucking badass, as she bubbles the Gem away.

"So coool~," A starry-eyed Steven says as a worried Saurus turned to Garnet.

"Uh, are you sure that's a good idea, Garnet?" Saurus asked with crossed arms as a glaring Arthur nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, what if they come back and try to hurt everyone?" Arthur asked as Garnet turned to the Boys stoically.

"I told you, I will handle it," Garnet says as Saurus and Arthur frown disapprovingly, but nodded as Pearl reluctantly walked over to grab Amethyst's legs and pulled her out of the hole.

"I swallowed a rock."

{Jurassic Universe Season 1 Theme Song!}

We...are...the Crystal Gems!

We'll always save the day!

Standing in a large red colorful background with millions of glowing stars, we see a stoic Garnet lifting up her glasses to wink at the readers slyly with her Dual Germstones glowing brightly as Arthur stood beside her and grinned slyly as the 18-year-old Man lifted up his right arm to show off his glowing Gemstone and we then see a pair of smirking Pearl and Amethyst riding around on Blue's back with their Gemstones glowing brightly and the 10-year-old Female Hybrid Child was transformed into her Full Dinosaur Form as a roaring Saurus suddenly dropped down from the sky and landed in front of the Crystal Gems in his Full Dinosaur Form with Steven riding on his back and his Gemstone glowed brightly as they all struct a heroic pose.

And if you think we can't,

We'll always find a way!

After warping themselves into the other side of the planet, the Crystal Gems can be seen glaring at a hoard of Corrupted Gems, Evil Dinosaurs, and Jasper and Peridot as Garnet swiftly summoned her Gauntlets while Pearl summoned her spear as Amethyst pulled out her whip, Steven summoned his Shield, Saurus transformed into his True Dinosaur Form, Arthur summoned his spiked gauntlets, and Blue transformed into her Full Dinosaur Form as the Crystal Gems then mounted onto Saurus's back and charged forward at high speeds as they all let out a loud battle cry.

That's why the people of this world

Always believe in...

Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Arthur, and Blue...and Saurus and Steven!

After defeating their powerful foes and saving the Planet Earth, the Crystal Gems decided to head back to Beach City as, after warping themselves near their Hometown, a roaring Saurus ran down the streets of Beach City, alarming Lars and Sadie, surprising the Pizza Family, impressing the Cool Kids, and caused a visiting Connie to gasp in awe as the Gang was able to arrive at their home, and the Crystal Gems got off Saurus's dinosaur back as he transformed back into his Human Form just as Greg drove up to them as he got out of the vehicle and placed a grill in front of them to grill up some victory Hot Dogs as a smiling Saurus rubbed a giggling Steven's head proudly.

{Jurassic Universe Season 1 Theme Song Over!}

"So, what are we doing here, Steven?" Saurus asked curiously as we see the Crytal Gems walking through the Beach City Boardwalk, early in the morning as Steven can be seen walking ahead of them.

"We all worked so hard, we deserve a reward," Steven says with a smug grin as he chuckled.

"Well, I can't deny that," Arthur says with a smirk and a chuckle.

"Sounds like you have something in mind," Pearl says with an amused smile as Steven starts giggling and dancing around just as they arrived at the Beach City Funland Arcade as he held out his hand in presentation.

"I'm taking you Guys to the best place in Beach City! Funland Arcade!"

"...Do we have anything else to do?" Pearl asked Garnet with a groan as she shakes her head.

"We don't," Garnet stated bluntly as Saurus rolled his eyes playfully and elbowed Pearl's sides.

"Come on, Pearl, don't be such a spoilsport. This could be fun." Saurus says with a smile, remembering how much fun he had in all of the arcades that he had played at...although, Saurus always needed to steal money to play at the arcades.

"Um, don't you need money for that place?" Amethyst pointed out dryly with Blue lying on top of her head and she was struggling to bite into the ice block as a smirking Steven turned to her with his left eye glinting across the sunlight.

"Oh, don't worry. This one's on...meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Steven screamed while opening his snow jacket to reveal pockets full of coins as the Crystal Gems shielded their eyes from the glimmers of the coins, and once everyone composed themselves, we see the Gang walking through the Funland Arcade.

"How did you get so many coins by the way?" Arthur asked curiously as a smiling Steven turned to him.

"Dad gave me money to buy them," Steven explained as Arthur gave him a playfully suspicious look and crossed his arms.

"Hmmm, why did you want to buy so many game tokens? Oh, don't tell me that you want to buy a toy for Connie, huh?" Arthur asked teasingly as Saurus grinned slyly and turned to Steven.

"Ooh, Stevie wanted to buy a romantic gift for his girlfriend~," Saurus says with a sing-songy voice as Steven blushed heavily and squirmed a bit as he then glared at the Boys.

"C-Connie is not my girlfriend! S-She's just my friend! Stop being weird!" Steven screamed with an angered huff as Saurus and Arthur turned to each other.

"I bet that Connie makes the first move and kisses Steven first," Arthur says as Saurus groaned.

"Gah, dude, come on, I was going to pick Connie, you dick. Alright, I choose Steven. The loser has to pay the other 100 bucks."

"Deal," Arthur says with a nod while he and Saurus shared a handshake as Steven stared at them with a thick mark on his head before composing himself as he puts on a big cheerful smile.

"Anyway, Gems, fellow Alien Hybrid, and Dinosaur/Human Hybrids, welcome to a wonderland of funtronic gameventions."

"Humans find such fascinating ways to waste their time," Pearl says with a hum as Steven suddenly reached over to grab her arm and pulled her away.

"Pearl, come on, you'll love this game," Steven says while leading her over to a Dance Dance Revolution Game. "You love dancing, so you will love this game. Here, I will set the settings for 'Ballerina Mode'," Steven says while pressing a few buttons on the console to program for Ballerina Dance Mode.

"Okay, so what do I do?" Pearl asked curiously, happy to hear that there will be her favorite style of dancing involved as Steven pointed at the dancing tiles and then at the screen.

"Well, the goal of this game is for you to match the movements of what happens on the screen. If you do, you win the game."

"Repetition, instructive, and dancing? You piqued my interest, Steven Universe." Pearl says with a wink before turning her head to start her game as Steven jumped off and walked over to Saurus as he grabbed his hand and leads him over to the Road Killer Game Console.

"Alright, Little Buddy, what do you got?" An amused Saurus asked as Steven gestured him to sit down in the fake toy racecar and the Human/Dinosaur Hybrid did so.

"So, all you have to do is pick the car you like and just go for it."

"Really? So do I have to win a race or something?" Saurus asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Nope, just smash into stuff."

"...Heh, nice, I'm in," Saurus says with a feral grin and began playing the game as Steven then walked over to grab Arthur's hand and leads him over to a Boxing game.

"Huh, this seems pretty self-explanatory," Arthur says with a shrug while he began playing the game by punching the punching bag repeatedly as Steven then walked over to grab Amethyst and Blue and leads them over to the Skee-Ball Machine.

"This is Skee-Ball." Steven says with a smile while handing a ball to a bewildered Amethyst. "You roll the ball into the hole, and then you can even win tickets for prizes," Steven says while pointing over at a Prize Booth as Onion turns a pile of tickets in towards Mr. Smiley, who gives him a small moped as he beamed happily. "Whoa, Onion's the ticket master!"

"Cool," Amethyst says as Steven nodded before using his Shapeshifting Powers to stretch up his legs as he reached over to grab Blue and held her up in the air.

"Alright, good luck," Steven says while stretching his legs back to their normal size as he then walked off, leaving behind Amethyst as she slowly turned to glance at the Skee-Ball Machine and smirks devilishly.

"Okay, Blue, I know that this is your first time in an Arcade and playing games in general, so I will introduce to you the most simplest yet frustrating game ever, the Claw Machine," Steven says while bringing Blue over to the Claw Machine as he placed her down. "All you have to do is use the claw to pick up a toy and that's it. Have fun." Steven says with a cheerful wave as he then turned around to walk away, leaving behind Blue as she turned to look at the Claw Machine and perked up at the sight of a hammer inside as the Human/Dinosaur Hybrid ran over to it and tried to reach in to grab the hammer, but failed to do so due to her short arms.

"Stupid machine," Blue says with a pout before getting an idea as she summoned her blue tail and sticks it into the slot as she reached in to latch onto the hammer and bring it out of the Claw Machine as Blue then walked over to her dropped ice block and raised her hammer as she slammed it down into the ice block, obviously not shattering it apart since it's a toy hammer as Blue frowned sadly.

"Wah, wah, wah?" A feminine childish voice says as a surprised Blue turned her head and her eyebrows raised in shock at the sight of a cute girl her age standing in front of her.

Standing before her is a 4'2-feet-tall, 10-year-old Girl with black eyes, knee-length spiky dark honey-blond hair, thin black eyebrows, pointy ears, a small nose, a sharp chin, Pale Snow White Skin, a slender build, and her outfit consists of a long-sleeved opened pink hoodie, a short-sleeved white shirt underneath, a black belt with a silver belt buckle, long blue jeans, and a pair of pink/white shoes. Her name is Raddishes, Vidalia and Yellowtail's First Child, Sour Cream's Little Sister, and Onion's Older Sister.

"Huh?"

"Wah, wah, wah?" Raddishes asked again while pointing over at the block of ice as Blue glanced between her and it.

"Blue trying to eat ice...but ice too hard...Blue sad." Blue says while dropping down into the ground with a pout as Raddishes hummed in thought.

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah."

"We...are...not...cavemen?"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah."

"We...have...technology?"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah."

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, okay," Blue says with a smile while standing up from the floor as she walked over to the Claw Machine and transformed into her Full Dinosaur Form, amazing Raddishes as she went starry-eyed at the sight of Blue bending down to grab the Claw Machine and gripped the underside of it as she then lifted it up into the air with her super strength and walked back over to began slamming the Claw Machine against the ice block repeatedly while grunting loudly as she was able to not only break apart the block of ice but also the Claw Machine as the plushies inside fell out and landed around the Girls. "Yay! Ice! Blue thanks you, New Friend!"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah."

"You name Raddishes?"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah?"

"My name Blue," Blue says with a blushing smile while shifting back into her Human Form as Raddishes beams.

"Garnet? This game is perfect for you." Steven says with a smile while leading Garnet over to the Teens of Rage Videogame Console. "You seem like a Joe Rock kinda gal," Steven says while assigning Garnet's character as he then hummed in thought. "His special move is...forward, forward, back, tap towards half circle, medium kick-Oh wait! Maybe that's an aerial move? Eh, just punch and you'll be fine." Steven says with a shrug as Garnet nodded and held out her right arm as she summoned Ruby's Weapon and proceeds to literally punch the screen of the game machine, breaking it as the Leader of the Crystal Gems smirked smugly and De-Summoned her Weapon.

"I did it."

"Uhh...let's try something else." A nervous Steven says while reaching over to grab Garnet's arm and leading her over to the Punch Buddy Videogame Console. "Okay, this is a game you can actually punch," Steven says with a tense smile, but that ended up being the wrong thing to say as Garnet held up her left arm and summoned Sapphire's Weapon as she swiped at the Punch Buddy Videogame Console, being able to slash it in half and send half of the machine flying away to crash outside into the Boardwalk as Garnet then De-Summoned her Weapon.

"I win again."

"Uh... uhm...uh..." Steven says while sweating profoundly as he frantically looks around and perked up at the sight of the Meat Beat Mania Videogame Console as he reached over to grab Garnet's arm. "How about that one? Meat Beat Mania." Steven says as he leads her over to it.

"There's no violence in this game. Just shake the meat, to the beat." Steven says while walking over to grab the Ham Controllers as he then hands them over to Garnet, who begins to play the game as the game encourages her to perform a move, and she was able to perform it all with ease. "Awesome, Garnet, you're so good at this," Steven says with a laugh while sighing in relief as he then looked around. "Now, I wonder how the others are doing," Steven says curiously while walking away as he was able to find Pearl and saw her dancing around in Dance Dance Revolution with a big smile on her face. "Hey, Pearl, how are you doing?"

"Oh, Steven, thank you so much for bringing me here! This Human Game is so much fun! Maybe I was wrong about Humans creating things to waste time!" Pearl says with a smile while dancing around as Steven smiled and nodded before turning around to walk away as he was able to meet up with Saurus, who was still playing Road Killer as he was driving around with a maniacal grin on his face.

"How are you doing, Saurus?"

"Pretty great, Steven. I killed a bunch of civilians and destroyed two buildings." Saurus says as Steven smiled cheerfully and nodded just as Arthur appeared as he walked over to them.

"Yo."

"Hey, Arthur, did you have fun?" Steven asked as Arthur nodded

"Yep, although I finished my game early."

"Oh, don't worry, I will help you find a new game soon after I check in on the others. Come on, follow me." Steven says as Arthur nodded and the Boys turned around to walk away as they were able to meet up with Amethyst...and gasped in shock as they spotted Amethyst standing in front of her Skee-Ball Machine while shapeshifting her arms into dual sets of complicated slides as she was able to scoop up various skeeballs and dunked then directly into the center hole, attaining a huge pile of tickets as the Human/Gem Hybrids rushed over to her frantically.

"Amethyst, what are you doing?" A glaring Arthur asked as Amethyst turned to smirk at him while shapeshifting her arms back to normal

"Imma win an airplane!"

"No, you can't do that, Amethyst! That's cheating! You're gonna get us in so much troub-,"

"Hey, you guys know what happened to Teens of Rage?!" A glaring Mr. Smiley asked while trying to run over to them as he wore a short-sleeved high-collared gray-blue shirt with a geometric print of periwinkle circles and sulfur yellow triangles, an olive green fanny pack wrapped around her waist, mid-thigh length olive green shorts, and a pair of light brown boots.

"Uh oh, we are in so much trouble." A worried Steven says as Arthur turned to give him a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, Steven, I have one last secret technique that can fix this situation," Arthur says with a stoic glare on his face as Steven and Amethyst turned to him hopefully/curiously as a few seconds of suspension rang out. "...RUN AWAY!" Arthur screamed while running away comically as a flinching Steven and Amethyst did the same.

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah." Radishes says while she and Blue sat down on the ground as Vidalia's Daughter played around with the plushies and the Human/Dinosaur Hybrid was eating several pieces of the ice.

"Cool. Blue also has brother. His name Saurus. Do you have other brothers?"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah."

"His name Onion?"

"Wah, wah."

"He nice?"

"Wah, wah."

"Ah, want to be friends?" Blue asked as Radishes nodded with a smile. "Friends! You part Blue's Pack!" Blue says with a beaming smile while hugging Raddishes, who blushed at the hug as Steven and the others suddenly appeared.

"Blue, we are leaving!" A panicking Steven yelled as Arthur rushed over to grab Blue and placed her in his arms. "Oh, hey, Raddishes! Say hi to Aunty Vidalia and Sour Cream for me!"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah!" Raddishes yelled with a gushing smile while waving at the group goodbye as Blue waved back and the group ran off as they were able to appear back with Saurus and Pearl.

"Guys, we're leaving!"

"Uh, what?/But I want to continue playing." Saurus and Pearl said in unison before being pulled away by Steven and Amethyst as they spotted Mr. Smiley rushing towards them with a glare on his face.

"Yo, Garnet, we're leaving!" Arthur yelled at Garnet, who was still playing Meat Beat Mania as she didn't even glance at them.

"Uh, see you at home!" An anxious Steven screamed as he and the others then ran out of the Beach City Funland Arcade.


"So, what's today's mission?" Arthur asked while using his Spiked Gauntlets to block Pearl's spear stabs as we cue to the next morning and we see the Crystal Gems, sans Garnet, at the Beach House Crystal Temple as Steven was eating breakfast in his bed with Blue eating her own breakfast beside him while Arthur and Pearl were sparring with each other as a grunting and shirtless Saurus can be seen doing pushups on the ground with Amethyst lying on top of his back as she shapeshifted herself into Purple Puma.

"Yeah, I was wondering that too. I hope that we fight...a giant...foot!"

"Why?" Saurus asked while still doing pushups as Steven shrugged and Pearl and Arthur briefly stopped sparring to turn to him.

"Well, Steven, if we're supposed to fight a 'Giant Foot' Garnet would let us know," Pearl says as Amethyst nodded while lying back against Saurus's sweaty muscular black casually.

"Yeah, Garnet's the boss," Amethyst says while placing her arms behind her back as she kicked up her feet.

"Well, we're all a team. Garnet just has a heightened perception that guides us towards our mission objective."

"Yeah, she's the boss," Amethyst stated matter-of-factly as Arthur nodded.

"That's the very definition of being a boss."

"Garnet boss!" Blue yelled excitedly while throwing up her bowl of cereal into the air as it fell down and splashed against the top of her head, causing her to giggle amusedly as Saurus spots this and groaned in annoyance as he signaled Amethyst to jump off his body.

"Seriously, Blue? I just gave you a bath." Saurus says with a stern glare while standing up from the floor as he turned to Blue, who ran over to jump up and land on his arms as the Human/Dinosaur Teenage Hybrid began taking her over to the Bathroom to give her the third bath this morning.

"Hey, I just realize something, where is Garnet? Is she fighting the Foot?" Steven asked while still eating his breakfast as Arthur smirked at him cockily.

"Unless she hangs out with Mutant Turtles and knows Ninjutsu, I highly doubt that."

"Ugh, Garnet's not fighting 'The Foot'," Pearl says while rolling her eyes with a scoff. "You know that Garnet goes off on missions without us all the time. She's probably doing something very important."

"Oh wait, Steven! I just remembered Garnet had a special mission for you!" A mischievously grinning Amethyst says while shapeshifting herself back into her Default Form as an excited Steven glanced down at her.

"Really?!" A hopeful Steven asked as she nodded vigorously.

"Yeah, she says um, you have to slam your face into that bowl of cereal!"

"Okay!" A determined Steven yelled as he proceeds to dunk his face into his bowl of cereal.

"Good job, Steven! You stopped the foot!" Amethyst praised while holding out her arms with a big grin on her face.

"THERE IS NO FOOT!"

"Not anymore." A smug-faced Steven says with his face covered in milk and cereal as Pearl groaned and lowered her head as Arthur patted her back to comfort her.

"Welp, now that that's done, time to comb the beach for quarters with my...METAL MUTT!" Steven exclaimed heroically while wiping his face with his shirt as he then gets out a metal detector that had the face of a dog and jumped out of his bed to land on the ground. "Anyone want to come with me?"

"Hmmm...eh, sure, I will come," Arthur says with a shrug while De-Summoning his Weapon as the Boys walked out of the room.

"Thanks for coming with us, guys," Steven says with a smile while he and Arthur scoured the beach for quarters with the Metal Mutt as Saurus appeared out of nowhere and walked towards them with a fully cleaned Blue resting on his shoulders as she had a set of new clean clothes on her.

"No prob," Saurus says with a shrug as Blue began playing with his hair. "Anyway, why are you trying to use a metal detector again?"

"Oh, I'm trying to find interesting stuff," Steven explained as Arthur gave him a playful grin.

"Are you hoping to find a gold necklace for Connie~?"

"Or a diamond ring~?"

"CAN YOU GUYS STOP TEASING ME ALREADY?!" A glaring and blushing Steven screamed as Saurus and Arthur laughed and nodded as the Boys then wandered off and Steven waved his Metal Mutt around as it starts barking and the Human/Gem Child Hybrid perked up as he bends down and starts digging into the ground. "Oh, I can't wait to see what I...aw, silver dollars? Useless!" Steven screamed while tossing away two silver dollars as a frantic Saurus and Arthur rushed over to grab them just as the Metal Mutt began once more further down the beach as Steven narrowed his eyes. "This better not be another cap," Steven says with a frown while bending down to dig up another Metal Mutt as he beamed excitedly.

"Huh, those things actually work? Hmmm, I do need some more cash. Hand one of those Metal Mutts to me, Steven." Saurus says as Steven nodded and was about to hand over one of the Metal Mutts, but then everyone flinched in surprise as a Drill Parasite suddenly shoots out of the sand and clutches onto his hand as Steven screamed panickedly and flailed around frantically as he was able to fling it up into the air and the Crystal Spike turns into a drill shape and dive downwards towards Steven, who was able to summon his Shield and whacked it away with a glare as he then flinched in fear when Three Drill Parasites appear from out of the sand and flew over to try and attack him, but then-

"Steven, look out!" Saurus screamed while allowing Blue to jump off his shoulders as he then ran over to Steven and jumped up into the air and morphed into his Human/Dinosaur Hybrid Form as he whirled around and was able to knock away Two of the Drill Parasites before landing on the ground as a giggling Blue transformed into her Full Dinosaur Form and rushed over to then jumped up as she latched onto the Third Drill Parasite with her mouth and crushed it into a billion pieces with her powerful jaws just as Five More Drill Parasites shoot out of the sandy ground as they flew over to try and attack them, only for a glaring Arthur to summon his Spiked Gauntlets as he raised his arms and slammed his hands down into the ground, creative a big shockwave of sand that collided gains the Drill Parasites, sending them flying away as Pearl and Amethyst appeared around the corner of a nearby cliff and saw the Kids being attacked.

"Steven! Saurus! Arthur! Blue!"

"It's the little guys!" Amethyst shouted just as more Drill Parasites appeared and shot out of the sandy ground as they then flew over to the Gems with Amethyst quickly reaching out to grab Pearl's ass and pulled her close to her so that the Drill Parasites would zoom past them.

"Did you have to grab my butt?" Pearl asked with a blush as Amethyst shrugged with a grin just as the Boys ran over to them as the Drill Parasites zoomed over to attack them and the Crystal Gems summoned their weapons as Pearl was able to slash one of them while Amethyst whipped a second one to death as Saurus and Blue worked together to whirl around and tailwhip various Drill Parasites to pieces as Arthur was able to whack away multiple Drill Parasites and a glaring Steven held out his Shield as he grew it in size and used it to block off the rest of the incoming Drill Parasites from attacking them as the Gang smiled...but then cringed in shock/worry as countless more of the Drill Parasites shoot out of the sandy ground, easily covering the blue skies with hundreds of Drill Parasites as they all slowly aimed themselves down at the stunned Crystal Gems.

"BUBBLE! BUBBLE! BUBBLE! BUBBLE! BUBBLE!" The Crystal Gems shouted to Steven panickedly as he reacted quickly and De-Summoned his Shield as the Human/Gem Child Hybrid then summoned his Bubble Shield just as the Drill Parasites began raining down from the sky, either burying themselves into the sand or breaking apart into billion pieces upon colliding against Steven's Bubble Shield as various Drill Parasites even shot out of the ocean to try and attack them.

"They're everywhere, why didn't we see this coming?!" Pearl screamed frantically as Arthur turned to give her a deadpanned glare.

"Seriously?! Don't you remember that Saurus and I tried to warn you that this could happen!?" Arthur asked in exasperation as Pearl blushed in embarrassment and looked away sheepishly.

"Ooh, pretty!" Blue says as, after morphing back into her Human Form, she leaped up to land on her Brother's back and points ahead as Saurus and the others were horrified to see a few of the Drill Parasites reaching the Boardwalk.

"Shit! They are heading towards the boardwalk! We can't let them into the city! There's no telling what they could do!" A concerned Saurus yelled since he doesn't want any of the Drill Parasites to either destroy private properties or drill through innocent civilians.

"We need Garnet!" Steven yelled nervously.

"We don't know where she is!" Pearl screamed as Arthur hummed in thought...before gasping in realization as he snapped his fingers.

"I think I know where she is!"

"Wait...Meat Beat Mania! Of course! Guys, we know where Garnet is and we can find her!" An excited Steven screamed with more and more Drill Parasites colliding against his Bubble Shield as they actually started cracking it.

"Uh, that's nice and all, but what do we do about those Drill Parasite things?" Amethyst asked as Saurus glanced around stoically before gaining an idea as he turned to Pearl.

"Pearl, do you think you can use your Sand Powers to contain these Drill Parasites?"

"All of them? At once? I don't know if I can do it on my own." Pearl says with a frown as Arthur perked up and turned to give her a sly grin.

"Maybe not alone, but how about together?" Arthur asked while gesturing at Amethst as Pearl realized what he was talking about and groaned in dismay.

"Ugh, seriously?"

"Yes, I mean, this is a deadly situation, after all," Arthur says with a shrug as Saurus nodded with a glare.

"Yeah, while you and Amethyst hold off the Drill Parasites, we will go and find Garnet."

"Grrr...fine...Steven? Pop the bubble and bring up a Shield." Pearl demanded as Steven nodded and popped his Bubble Shield as he swiftly summoned his Shield and expanded it in size as the Human/Gem Child Hybrid was able to cover and protect his teammates from the Drill Parasites as Pearl and Amethyst bowed to each other with their Gemstones glowing a bright white/purple as Pearl and Amethyst began dancing around before Rose's One-Sided Lover ran over to leap into the Overcooked Amethyst Quartz Soldier's arms as she raised her up into the air and their Gemstones glowed brightly as their bodies turned into pure white light and Pearl and Amethyst proceeds to fuse with each other as a big ball of white light started forming and growing in size as Opal was formed.

"Alright, Girls, do your thing while I do mine," Opal says with her Gemstone glowing brightly as she projected five hologram-esque clones of herself with the Kids being amazed by this as they then watched on as Opal and the Hologram Opals rolled up into their ball forms as they separated and rolled forward at high speeds as Opal and the Hologram Opals began speeding across the beach back and forth while using their Sand Manipulation Powers to latch onto the sand around them and created a giant whirlpool sandstorm that collided against the Drill Parasites, forcing all of them to fly around into one place, including the ones that were trying to fly over to the Beach City Boardwalk.

"Ugh!" Opal grunted while unrolling herself as she skids to a stop and her Hologram Clones dissipated as the Fusion of Pearl and Amethyst then raised her arms and infused them with purple flames as she proceeds to slam her hand down into the sandy ground, swiftly covering the whirlwind sandstorm with thick glass, encasing the Drill Parasites inside as they immediately started trying to drill themselves to safety. Still, Opal merely placed her hands on her glass creation and used her Glass Manipulation powers to fix up the cracks that the Drill Parasites made. "I can't hold this forever, Kids! Go and find Garnet!" Opal ordered as the Kids perked up and nodded as they turned around to run away, and a few minutes later, they were able to arrive at the Beach City Funland Arcade as Saurus and the others perked up at the sight of Garnet still playing Meat Beat Mania, entranced by its rhythm and unresponsive to everything or everyone around her as Onion and Radishes can be seen watching nearby on Onion's moped.

"Garnet! You gotta come quick, Garnet! Those little guys are back an-and they're a problem!" Steven says before getting distracted by the screen on the game as he gasped in awe. "Whooaaa! I've never seen anyone get this far!"

"Steven, focus!" Arthur scolded as Saurus rushed over to Garnet.

"Yo, Garnet, we have an emergency back at the Temple! We need you to come with us!" Saurus yelled while reaching over to grab Garnet's arm as he tried to drag her out of the arcade, but failed to do so as the Boys then spend the next 10 minutes trying to move her, only for Garnet to remain motionless as Saurus and Arthur frowned and shared a serious nod as they then suddenly raised their arms and proceeds to deliver a couple of powerful smacks on Garnet's fat asscheeks, causing it to wiggle violently, but Garnet continued playing the game without even flinching in pain or indignation.

"Uh, why did you guys do that?" A bewildered Steven asked as Arthur shrugged.

"We thought that would snap her out of her funk," Arthur explained as Saurus nodded.

"Hey, new friend," Blue says excitedly while jumping off from Saurus's back as she rushed over to Raddishes, who smiled and waves back at her.

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah,"

"We trying to get Pack Leader back. What you doing?"

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah."

"Oh, cool...so this brother...I'm Blue...hi." Blue says while waving at Onion, who waved at her while pulling out a human arm and began nibbling on it. "...Can you share with Blue?" Blue asked hopefully as Onion nodded and allowed Blue to begin eating the arm as Raddishes was happy to see her Little Brother and New Friend get along.

"Come on, Garnet, snap out of it. You gotta get back and help out the others." Saurus says while walking over to stand in front of Garnet as he then transformed into his Full Dinosaur Form and reached over to grab her shoulders as Saurus started shaking her around, but Garnet simply continued playing perfectly, even when she can't see the screen anymore, although her visor was accidentally knocked off, revealing her third eye as it seems to be mesmerized and moving rapidly as it was clearly obvious that Garnet was using her Future Vision to play beat Meat Mania, but since the game could run forever, this means that she was stuck in an infinite loop. "Holy third eye!" A shocked Saurus exclaimed while stepping back as he was surprised by Garnet's Third Eye.

"Oh my gosh! Garnet is under the game's mind control! Pearl was right! Videogames are dangerous!" A panicking Steven screamed worriedly as Arthur narrowed his eyes and walked over to the Meat Beat Mania Videogame Console.

"Don't worry, Guys, I can fix this," Arthur says while bending down as he grabs the plug and pulled it out, causing the game to promptly shuts off as Garnet paused a bit before throwing up her ham controllers into the air as she then shapeshifted her arms to stretch them around a surprised Saurus and latched onto the Meat Beat Mania Videogame Console while activating her electricity powers as she used them to reactivate the game machine, turning it back on as Garnet then stretched her arms back to normal and reached up to grab the falling ham controllers as she continued playing.

"...Okay, I won't lie, that was kind of sick," Saurus says with a grin as Steven and Arthur glared at him in annoyance. "Don't worry, I have a solution for this," Saurus says reassuringly while walking over to grab the Beat Meat Mania Videogame Console as he was easily able to rip it out of the ground and began slamming it down into the ground repeatedly, breaking it apart and destroying the evil game for good as Garnet stopped at her tracks, quickly coming to her senses as she dropped her ham controllers and her third eye closes as Garnet blinks and glanced down at the Kids.

"Steven! Saurus! Arthur!"

"Garnet!" Steven, Saurus, and Arthur exclaimed happily as Garnet smiled warmly and snapped her fingers as she summoned her visor.

"You all won," Garnet says just as Mr. Smiley appeared and he angrily stomps over to them after witnessing Saurus destroying Meat Beat Mania.

"Ah...it was you! It was all of you! You've been breaking my games!" Mr. Smiley screamed furiously as Arthur turned to Garnet.

"Garnet, we have trouble back at the Crystal Beach House Temple. We will explain what's going on along the way."

"HEY! WHO ARE GOING TO PAY FOR ALL OF THE DAMAGES?!" Mr. Smiley screamed with a glare as Garnet turned to him blankly and snapped her fingers, summoning a bubble filled with 5 Million Dollars as she popped it and tossed it over to him.

"Will this cover all the damages?" Garnet asked bluntly as Mr. Smiley glanced at her and the money repeatedly...before beaming gleefully as he smiled harder and nodded.

"Absolutely! Thanks for your generous donation!" Mr. Smiley says with a smirk while turning around to walk away as a stunned Steven turned to Garnet.

"Whoa! Where did you get that kind of money?!"

"We had collected tons of money over the years. I mean, how else do you think we can afford the stuff that you have?" Garnet asked with a raised eyebrow and crossed arms.

"From Dad?"

"..." Garnet said nothing but stare down at him blankly, not bothering to tell him that the 'money' that Greg gives them is only for groceries and clothes as Saurus turned her head over to Blue and was shocked to see her cheering loudly as Onion drove her and Radishes around on his moped before they drove off into the Beach City Boardwalk as they disappeared from sight.

"W-Wha-Hey! Blue! Get back here!" A concerned Saurus screamed as Arthur turned to him.

"Don't worry, we will go over and fetch her later. We have to deal with the Drill Parasites first." Arthur says as Saurus frowned stoically, but nodded as the Crystal Gems then ran out of the Beach City Funland Arcade while explaining to Garnet with what's going on as, a few minutes later, we see the Gang arriving back at the Crystal Temple Beach House and spotted a glaring Opal still keeping the Drill Parasites inside of her giant glass trap as she gritted her teeth.

"Opal! You can let go of them now! We got Garnet!" Saurus screamed as Opal turned to them and smiled brightly as she nodded and grunted as the Fusion shattered her glass construct apart, freeing the Drill Parasites as Opal then backflipped over to land beside the Crystal Gems.

"Garnet! I'm so happy to see you! What do we do?" Opal asked as Garnet adjusted her visor and it glinted across the sunlight as an idea popped into her head.

"Crystal Gems? Divide and conquer. Separate into two groups and take down as many as you can." Garnet instructed while summoning Ruby and Sapphire's Gem Weapons as everyone nodded and Saurus morphed into his Human/Dinosaur Hybrid Form while Steven and Arthur summoned their Shield and Spiked Gauntlets as Opal used her four arms to reach up to her Gemstones and pulled out Two of Pearl's Spear and Two of Amethyst's Whip as the Fusion held each weapon in all of her hands.

Zooming forward at Superhuman Speed, Garnet and Saurus can be seen running together with the former running down on all fours as the Leader of the Crystal Gems began thrusting her arms around repeatedly, slashing and whacking various Drill Parasites away as she even held out her arms and began twirling around rapidly, spewing out dual streams of ice and fire that iced up the incoming Drill Parasites or burned them alive as a growling Saurus rushed over to then leap up into the air and used his sharp claws to shred various Drill Parasites to pieces and twirled around to whack a few of them away as he landed on the ground and was able to use his Superhuman Speed to avoid various lunges from the Drill Parasites as the Human/Dinosaur Hybrid even raised his fist and knocked away a flying Drill Parasite that tried to attack him from behind.

Running side by side, a grinning Arthur leaped up into the air and created dual shadow balls in his hands as he used his elemental powers to toss them over to the Drill Parasites, causing them to blow up due to being electrocuted by the darkness energy lightning bolts as a grinning Steven whirled around and tossed his Shield as it flew through the air and it was able to slice through the Drill Parasites, killing them as Steven then perked up when more and more Drill Parasites appeared as they flew down to try and attack him, only for him to shapeshift himself into a Pink Cat to avoid the attacks as he then shapeshifted himself into a Pink Turtle to avoid more Drill Parasites and when a bunch more Drill Parasites tried to attack him from all sides, they were blown apart into billion pieces by a smirking Arthur after he fired off his Spiked Gauntlets at them like a pair of rockets.

Throwing her whips forward and having them wrap around two nearby stone hands, a grunting Opal proceeds to launch herself up into the air while manipulating a stream of sand to follow after her as the Fusion rolled herself up into her ball form and covered herself in purple flames as she collided against a group of Drill Parasites, knocking them away as if they were bowling pins as Opal then uncurled herself and began swiping her spears around relentlessly, slicing up multiple Drill Parasites as she then manipulated the stream of sand to whirl around into a circle in front of her and fired out a stream of purple fire that collided circle of sand, turning it into glass as Opal then shattered it apart and morphed it into a bunch of glass daggers as she latched onto them telekinetically and zoomed them forward to strike through the remaining Drill Parasites to kill them.

Stopping her attack, Garnet suddenly crouched down onto the ground just as a group of Drill Parasites tried to fly over to attack her as she lowered her left arm and fired out a big burst of cryo energy that propelled her up into the air while freezing the Drill Parasites in the process as Garnet hovered in mid-air and held up her right arm as she used her shapeshifting powers to grow out her hand to be ten times its usual size and covered her hand in red flames as Garnet proceeds to slam her hand down on the iced-up Drill Parasites, destroying them as a roaring Saurus can be seen punching and kicking various Drill Parasites away while using a combination of his Superhuman Strength and Speed as he laughed joyfully.

Landing on the ground, Arthur clenched his fists tightly and summoned another pair of Spiked Gauntlets as he rushed over to begin whacking and slashing various Drill Parasites in sight as Steven noticed that multiple Drill Parasites tried to attack him again, only for him to spin around rapidly and shapeshifted back into his Default Form while summoning his Bubble Shield as he was able to blow them all back and flinched in surprise when Arthur whirled around to fire a beam of darkness that flew past Steven's head and vaporized an incoming Drill Parasite into ashes as the Human/Gem Child Hybrid gave the Human/Gem Teenage Hybrid a thankful look.

Manipulating the sand below to create a large sand tendril from out of the ground, a grinning Opal slides down it elegantly before rolling up into her ball form and setting herself blazing with purple fire as Opal spin-dashed over to collide against various Drill Parasites, killing them as she then launched herself up into the air and spins around rapidly in mid-air while using her Spears and Whips to slash and whip away all of the incoming Drill Parasites. De-Summoning Two Spears and Whips, Opal then joined her Remaining Gem Weapons together and fused them into her large Energy Bow as her Gemstone then glowed brightly and she projected two hologram-esque clones of herself as they also had their own bows and the Trio then grabbed their Gem Weapons with their upper arms while using their lower arms to pull back on their bowstrings as Opal and her Hologram Clones created triple giant white light energy arrows with a white energy fierce aura covering their bodies as the Trio fired their energy projectiles and they flew through the air before breaking apart into a group of light-based white energy arrows as they all proceed to stab through the Drill Parasites and was able to kill them all.

Nodding approvingly at her teammates' efforts, Garnet then decided that it was time to finish off this mess for good as she flew up high into the air while De-Summoning Ruby and Sapphire's Gem Weapons as she then summoned her Brass Gauntlets and held them out in front of her as the Leader of the Crystal Gems grew them up to be the size of a bus and covered her weapons with white electricity as Garnet slowly aimed down at the remaining Drill Parasites and grinned slyly as she then fired her sparkling lightning brass gauntlets and they flew down through the air as Garnet's Gem Weapons collided against the Drill Parasites, sending them crashing down into the ground and caused a small storm of white electricity to occur as it traveled across the beach, shocking all of the Drill Parasites relentlessly and causing them to shriek in pain as they all began blowing up, finally finishing off the threat for good.

"Finally," Saurus says with a smirk while morphing back into his Human Form as a smiling Steven and Arthur De-Summoned their Shield and Spiked Gauntlets as Opal nodded approvingly while De-Summoning her Energy Bow and dissipated her Hologram Clones as she landed down into the ground and lowered her head as her Opal Gemstones glowed brightly and her body turned into pure white light as the Girls proceeded to de-fuse with each other and the pure white light swiftly formed back into Pearl and Amethyst as they appeared safely.

"Way to go, Garnet! You saved the day!" Arthur cheered loudly with everyone watching on as Garnet slowly floated back down into the ground and turned to the Crystal Gems as she nodded.

"No, we all saved the day. As a team...although, I have to say, where is Blue?" Garnet asked with a raised eyebrow just as Steven's phone notification sound rang out as he pulled out his phone from his pocket...and winced at what he sees.

"Uh, Saurus? You might want to take a look at this." Steven says with a worried tone while holding out his phone as Saurus peered in...and his jaw dropped at the sight of Ronaldo posting a live stream on his 'Keep Beach City Weird!' Blog as it showed the video of Blue holding up a hot dog stand in her Full Dinosaur Form and shaking it around to cause all of the money and hot dogs to fall down as Raddishes quickly began collecting all of them into the little basket on their moped while a glaring Onion pulled out a knife and waved it around threateningly at anyone who dares to try and stop them.

"...BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUE! YOU ARE IN BIG TROUBLE, YOUNG MISSY!" A scolding Saurus screamed while turning around to run back towards the Beach City Boardwalk with a concerned Steven and Arthur following after him as Garnet, Pearl, and Amethyst all shared an amused laugh.
